A meticulously preserved Mid-Century Modern diagonally across from Clark Square Park, with Lake Michigan views woven throughout the home, this split-level residence offers five bedrooms, three and a half baths, and an authentic Mid-Century layout that celebrates design, light, and connection to nature. Original details remain in much of the home, including two and a half original baths-perfect for the Mid-Century purist or an inspired modernization. Expansive windows frame lake and park views, while a dramatic double-sided wood-burning fireplace anchors the living spaces. The generous eat-in kitchen invites gathering and future design potential. A standout fifth bedroom includes a private entrance and full bath, offering endless flexibility as a guest suite, home office, den, or future primary bedroom. The upstairs primary suite is generously scaled with room for a sitting area retreat. Outdoor spaces shine with a cozy backyard for entertaining and a large front yard ideal for enjoying lake breezes, sunsets, and neighborhood life. Attached two-car garage with direct access to the home.
